clio 197 roof colour?

[quick197]

I bought my clio 197 it 6 months ago its liquid yellow but has a silver roof i get told alot that its nice but why a silver roof? and it annoys me so ive been thinking of getting it sprayed but what colour? I was thinking either gloss black or graphite grey the wheels are currently graphite grey so if i spray the roof black ill have to spray the wheels black to whats your opinion?

Why does it have a silver roof?

 

[Mar172]

Are you sure the colour wasn't previously Silver and the owner has not bothered to paint the roof ? i wasn't aware you could have a 197 in Yellow unless it was the R27 variant.

That looks really weird! Are you 100% sure that it's a respray and not vinyl wrap? (Obvious but thought I'd ask!).

Agreed - Did you text check to see if it had been resprayed in the past? That looks like it was originally silver and not yellow. What does log book say it is? I also didn't think you could get a standard 197 in yellow, only the R27's came in LY.

Reg comes up as silver, does the DVLA know?

 

[Knuckles]

Paint it liquid yellow

This.

Only.

It wouldn't hurt to add a private pLate, red brembos, xenons and the decals.

So it looks proper.

Here he comes.. to show off.

Just because I've got the best colour

I'm not going to admit it and give you the pleasure of hearing it, so I'll say... maybe.

It's fine, I take no pleasure in hearing the truth
